Day Eight-Beaufort, SC to Toogoodoo Creek

Saturday April 5, 2025

We left our mooring ball to make our way to B&B Seafood House. It’s just a store front where you can buy fresh local seafood. They also supposedly had other homemade goodies, so we thought we’d give it a try and spend the night on their dock. It took a couple of hours to get there, but it was a beautiful day to be on the water. Once we arrived, we went in and bought a pound of fresh jumbo shrimp ($8.50!). But no other homemade goodies! We also decided that we really didn’t want to stay there so we left and went ahead another 20 miles to find an anchorage.

In a few miles we thought we found a good spot to anchor but the current was too strong and we couldn’t get the anchor to hold. We left and continued on until we found a great spot on the Toogoodoo Creek. No problems here. We had a nice breeze, no bugs and a beautiful sunset along with our fresh delicious shrimp dinner.

The night was peaceful until 4am when the wind and the tide woke us up. Our anchor was holding just fine, it was just a little noisy (our stateroom is in the bow of the boat). We managed to get back to sleep.

All in all, it was a good day. We ended up doing 42 miles.
